Protecting Your Future And Your Freedom

Assault

There Are Two Sides To Every Fight

Were you arrested after a fight? Something as simple as a scuffle in a bar, an argument with a spouse, or a disagreement with a neighbor can suddenly escalate and leave you facing serious assault charges, including aggravated assault.

When you’re facing the possibility of being branded a violent criminal for the rest of your life, you need someone to listen to your side of the story. I am attorney Matthew Maddox of The Maddox Law Firm, and I understand that you may be confused and frightened right now — but being charged is not the same as being convicted. I will protect your rights and guide you through this ordeal.

Experienced Representation For Every Kind Of Violent Crime

Charges for violent crimes can be difficult to understand — you can be charged with assault even though you never actually harmed another person. That’s why you need someone who can explain the charges against you and go through the events leading to those charges step-by-step to spot every weakness in the prosecution’s case.

I can defend you against charges like:

Assault

Battery

Aggravated Assault

Manslaughter

Domestic Violence

Family Violence

Other violent crimes

Conviction of any of these charges can result in probation, community service, mandatory anger management counseling, significant jail time, large fines, the inability to carry a firearm or even vote. The damage to your reputation, career, and future can be immense. Hiring an experienced assault lawyer is critical.

The Sooner You Begin Your Defense, The Faster You Can Escape This Nightmare

Don’t try to handle a charge like this on your own. Prosecutors are not interested in being fair — they want convictions. Before you talk to the police, talk to a defense lawyer.
